[ so... guess who spent some of his credits on a smartphone?

guess who discovered certain apps?

guess who hasn't left his apartment all day? ]

Has anyone else been playing Hate Die? I seem to be kind of stuck on Pacifist War on expert mode. It's the rush toward the end that always gets me.

So... any advice?

[ there's a pause. ]

Oh, sorry, just one other thing. Creature Crossing: Compartment Complex... Apparently the app is still pretty new, but I can't decide how I feel about it. I mean, the animals demand constant favors, need you to build certain sets of furniture just to come visit your complex, and then it all goes to waste afterward? Talk about being used and abused.

I can't deny the truth of that, but the songs are just so... catchy. Once you start, it's hard to stop.

[enflame]

I did. ( Such disappointment, much concerned. ) What’s this other game about creatures? Is that just as gross?

[talim]

No! The point is to design your own complex and have your animal friends come visit. It's a lot more laid back than Hate Die. I'm starting to doubt their actual friendliness, though.

[enflame]

Catering to demanding animals...I think I’ll pass. For as popular as these “app” things appear to be, none of them sound very appealing so far.

[talim]

I'm sure you'll find the right ones eventually. There are a lot more apps besides rhythm games and social simulators.

[enflame]

I’ll look around on the store one once Lalli gives me back my tablet. ( He’s consumed by Pacifist War now. ) Do you know of any others?

[talim]

Countless. There's everything from alarm clocks to keeping track of how much water you drink a day to pedometers to... more rhythm games. Anything you could come up with is probably already there.

[enflame]

( Oh my god, he’s such an unintentional grandpa. He doesn’t want an app that makes him wake up. Why would you even NEED to keep track of water intake? Shouldn’t you know how many glasses you drink? RHYTHM GAMES!!! )

I’ll...take a look. Most of that sounds boring, but if there’s really a lot of them, there must be something.

[talim]

Maybe have Lalli help you? If he can put down Hate Die long enough, I mean.

[enflame]

( There’s some aggressive tapping that unfortunately can’t be heard in the distance. )

I don’t think that will happen for a while.

( He’s created a monster. )
